Pioneer Days I In r. r. i. I

By F. H. MacArthur

How do you think our forefathers got along before the days of mat- ‘ches? Keeping the hone fires burning was a sixty-four dollar question. and at bedtime some , member of the family. usualli the i fzithcr. chose a partly burncd stick

and. drawing the rest of the coals ,aside. covered it carefully wi h ‘ ashes. The partly burned s'lck was Iusurilly hemlock or pine as this i, kinrl of wood held the fire longer. I First thing in'the nrornig the

first riser hurried ti: the firvlace ‘ and carefully raked the a<hes from

'hc ficbrarrd. The dying ember Ithen was fanned i to llfc and bits iof paper and dry bark added to 1get a roaring flame under way.

, But there were times when the ;llI'EIl1'alld failed to hold all night. in which circumstances tho fire

had to be rekindlcd bc means of a

sun-fllfrss or hy using flin‘. in cases

where there were neighbors sonic- body wculcl he dispatched to b0‘- rrr/ some lire.

I don't hclicrc any of us irould like to have to do such nu errand tcr-dnv, cspcrially on a cold frosty rnflfillllll. The vciy irlcn makes us "liivcr and ict o r Iirirdy fore- IFUIIOYs thought lrtlr of it.

A course of treatment which may be of great help in breaking up the common cold early is reported in "Industrial Medicine." by Dr. J. M. Brewster, from investigations at a, United States Navy Compound. Drugs to counteract histamine ivhloh is manufactured by the body were tried. Among these were ben- adryl, Pyr-ibenzsmine. pyranlsamine and others. The usual drugs. cod- eine and papaverlne. were tried in another- group 0r control sense. A total of 572 patients were troaand.

I ask your advice on this family problem.

ANXIOUS PARENT

ANSWER: I doubt if there ls any problem in the world that ls more dlfflcult to solve than 110W 1° deal with lazy, selfish, parasitic children. Unfortun- ately We cannot emulate the example of the birds Whfl Cast the" of the nest when they are bl: H1008?! l0 59139111‘!

1s PARENTS‘ FAULT ‘

What the parents should do who have these xraftini; children Is hard to say because, after all, the fault is the parents’ and they are more to blame than the children. In the last analysis children are what their parents make them nnd they treat their parents as tlicy were taught to treat them. ‘

I am sorry I cannot give you any remedy for dealing with your daughter. If she had any generosity of soul, any affection or sense of duty, she would be eager to put her sirens WWII llivllldel‘ “ndt-‘P the load and help you and her mother bear it, So would the other children, all of whom should be earning their own llvings and as- sisting you instead of being a burden upon you, just as hundreds of thousands of other girls and boys, less well prepared for life than they, are helping their fathers and mothers.

It, is a pity that your youngsters cannot be made to understand the contempt with which people regard lazy, Idle boys and girls who sponge on their old fathers and mothers. And it Ia still more a pity that they cannot be made to comprehend how much happier they would be at work than they are loaflng.

Nevertheless such in- crease should be safeguarded, as rash or hectic manipulation of funds or property might prove re- grettable.
